I have never known anything about Formula 1 and Michael Schumacher before 1991, i used to sit down and watch the telly whatever was thrown at me, but since he came into my life as they say he has very much charnged my veiwing on the telly completely different has every Saturdays and Sundays i was eager to watch him in the practicing for pole position for Sundays racings i get all excited and start jumping up and down on the sofa, i am suprised the springs didnt snap. and when race day comes i am even more excited just shout at the telly and go bananas, the nieghbours must think i am off my trolley, but i didnt care, has i always rave loud when i see Michael on the telly, this all started when my husband was shopping and my son was out with his friends home.i just finished the dusting and wanted to rest a while  so i always have my VHS video on stand by just incase there is something worth recording and keeping to play back if i ever have nothing to watch and it was Spa 1991, poor lad finished out of the first formula 1 race after 1 lap. i was not very pleased,hard has i might i wanted to see what he looked like so i searched through Google images, i was gob smacked. i throught crickey what a great handsome man, so i began to get hooked by his good looking charms you could say, well anyway, i became more and more serious on him, so if he was losing i was crying and if he was winning i got more excited, i wanted to share his griefs and triumphs. it was fine until that moment in 1999 and 2003, i began to have problems watching the grand prixs and him i was collecting a great deal of memobillia since 1991, but i was buying more items and neglecting my duties, it is lucky has my husband understood he knew how passionate i was becoming, tragic moments happened in 1999 when Michael had a nasty injury at Silverstone has i watched it, i cried bitterly and wept so much it brought on my migraine, i was beginning to panic as more races  were going on after his good recovery, i decided try not to get upset then it happened again in 2003 when i saw him cry because his mother died so young only 55 she was not much older than me, it brought back tears of my mother because she was only 59 when she died, i went into depression over this, i was thinking why am i crying with this guy and he dont even know me, i eventually got out of it and has i was getting into dreams about him, reading a great deal of research  on him why dont i write a book for him  and other fans, so i did , i took almost 5 years to write by it was worth it.finished it in 2006 on Michaels last race in Brazil,i called the book Man on the Move, subtitled Michael Schumacher, My Sporting Hero., got it published , i told Mr Jean Todt i wanted to see Michael , but i couldnt so i posted the book on to Mr Todt  and he kindly posted it on to Michael, what a sweet man.While Michael was racing i was writing to Mr Todt he was my go-between relaying messages to Michael and he(Mr Todt) was kind enough to reply by hand back to me.i prayed hard every day to see Michael  until one day in December 2007 ,i was invited to see the Race of Champions at Wembley Stadium, i saw Michael he wasawesome and hoping he would re-appear in 2008  and he has, so i am going again.i still havent given up to chat with him has i have been informed he will come back again in 2009, so i am saving mighty hard to get a paddock pass which is the best seats in the arena and it will give me the chance to see him and talk to him  before the races start. well thats it, i still follow and support him, i still watch formula 1 but the sparkle of excitment has gone away but i still follow and support Ferrari.
